HTC has just released a ROM featuring sense 2.5 (created for the HD2) for the Diamond2 and Touch Pro2. See article on pocketnow.com (click here).
These devices have specifications which are similar to the HD. As the experience on custom ROMs with sense 2.5 has lagged, especially in the messaging application, will this official ROM bring a possibility for new and faster sense for the HD with the software being more optimized for use without the snapdragon processor?
Hopefully at last the HD can feature sense 2.5 with a far more usable and fast experience.

The Topaz Sense 2.5 was released a couple of months ago, and there's a Rhodium Sense 2.5 from mid-february too. Yes, they seem to be faster though it's probably just because they lack certain features from the HD2 Sense 2.5 - no ereader, documents or footprints tabs. Take a look at miniterror's rom which is based on Rhodium 2.07.
Rhodium version is 2.07, same as leaked version.
Topaz version is 2.53, same as leaked WWE version (Asia leak = 2.54)
yep i am using those pakages but they where not official
i just came form the rhodium section and it loks like htc has released a official update of the rhodium sense 2.5
if only i had a english s/n number to check out what is changed
would be verry handy as i am rebuilding my kitchen

ohh chris check this out... found it on rhodium forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=634536
the EU version i guess is pretty much a WWE version... u can extract sense 2.5 from it and use it in the next build
Great when are we going to start seeing ROMS created for our HD's with this new update to Sense UI included.
I find the LEO Sense ROMS way to clunky, the document, reader and footprints tabs are all useless to me, simple remove them as soon as I start using a rom...
PLEASE also chefs can you title your roms clearly to state which Sense UI you have cooked inside, this would help a lot.

Rhodium and Topaz Sense 2.5 Roms have been around for a month or more! I find them much better than the Leo ones (as to be expected).
Hello guys i just wana say something, and maybe some of the cookers who think the same way can cook something like this.
Here is full with many new ROM`s for our Blackstones but mostly they are with Manila 2.5 Sense and they are very very heavy ROM`s and not Run like it must to be on our device.. for that reason i use only ROM`s with 2.1 Sense because of the speed but even 2.1 Sense cant beat the speed and feel of TF3D 2.1.XXX so i know there is avalible ROM like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592632
from Topix but its Old Build, my question is can anyone cook a clean 6.5 Build for example some of the latest build from COM 2 21903 and to cook in the latest TF3D 2.1.XXX not sense anymore.
By clean i mean all files that the useless or all aplications that can be installed via cab to be removed from the ROM. Because some of the apps get updates all the time so you just can uninstall and install the new one via cab.. this can heppand only if the apps are not cooked in the ROM.
So for what im talking is a Super Fast ROM for everyday use, and on the same time good battery consumation, also everyone know how fast can be the old TF3D also i cant imagine a copressed TF3D with some other tweaks what will heppand... and how fast and sensitive will be.
Often we forgot that the main function of our devices is a Phone so often when there are heavy ROM`s the dialer is slow.. when someone calling you the respond is slow and things like this, what we really need is a Fast Device and fast Dialer fast response time when someone calling you to not have a delay and things like this.
If anyone who can cook wana make such a ROM will be awesome.
Thanks
I totally agree with you, would be nice if a chef could cook this up for us

Dude we talk about WWE ROM because i don`t understand anything from Italian
After many roms tested and tried (2.5), I was surprised with how fast 2.1 is. Never going back to 2.5 anymore. But I don't mind having 2.1 sense though.

Ok...but just try it...
don't do anything else...
I mean...Once I tried a Dutch ROM...I didn't understand a word...but I could watch how that ROM was...
now you should do the same...try how do you feel with that ROM and let me know what you think about it...and we could talk through PM...
and then reflash with a WWE ROM... ok?

Why to speak over PM for that reason i open a Thread everyone to can say what he/she think about this, so i dont mind to try the rom if there was avalible WWE translation of the ROM because i can see its good but what to do then? just Nothing.
And i don`t like the idea because few times you mention i can translate it if i have reason Also to write you in PM witch not sound GOOD.

I just meant that if you liked the ROM and there were some other people willing for this I would have considered the idea to develop a WWE version...

Faster ROM is needed!!!
I was about to post something similar. Lately I've been quite disappointed with the performance of my Blackstone, especially the latest ROMs. I think too much attention is being paid to introducing new features from the latest devices at the expense of the speed. The lack of speed is quite frankly makes a device totally unusable despite all the new features.
To the OP: I'm not sure if it's a Sense/TF3D issue, as these can be either disabled or installed separately, but totally agree with bringing up the subject.
The most clean rom: Mario super lite (WM6.1 & WM6.5).
They are old builds but very stable and low memory & power eating.
I have tried most of roms from cookers here but always go back to these two.(Keep backups from two roms.) Now I using wm6.1 with SPB Mobile SHELL.

The TF3D is very very fast and Smooth so the diference is that the icons are not coloured but you can do it with a single cab also there have not my location service on the weather tab and you dont have the weather under the clock in the home screen but i ask myself HOW many times i watch the weather in the home tab under the clock? the question is Never all we can agree its more eye candy and beautyfull but is not usefull and many other things in the new SENSE are just for eye candy so befor a long time when i was using old TF3D i still remember for example when i tab to update the weather via WiFi the weather Update for around a half seconds WOWWW now with all the new SENSE things.. all the tabs are much more slower you need to wait the weather to be Updated and things like this.. Also i miss in the Album tab the Auto Rotation i can`t believe that this was removed from the new Builds because this was really usefull i mean when you click to see some image and you rotate the screen the image fit the whole screen really fast no matter how you rotate the screen, i dont know why this was removed...
Many peoples will say you can do this for example with G-config but the question is why to use 3rd Apps to make something that is made to be like this by default also the Auto rotation of the Album was really fast and smooth without delay.
Now with all this knowlage i mean the CFC Compression and all other regs tweak that we know and new Stuffs i can`t imagine what will be if someone create such a ROM WM 6.5 Based with Copmressed TF3D also can be compresed the Phone Canvas the dialer Images to be lighter and the whole graphics...to be compressed for example see the Blackstonehange ROM`s how they are smaller size than all other because of this compression of all images under windows.
This can be really a Rocket ROM for everday use..
There already have clean ROM`s without Manila and Titatnium.. Okay they are clean ROM`s but honestly is bored to use such as big screen without good UI and you need to use Apps like SPB Shell or other like that to have some UI because is ugly to have one empty big screen without a UI..
I think that the Manila UI is a good also the new SENSE is good but its not made for us.. and the Blackstone feel confortable with the old TF3D so with all this new things coming to the forum and all cooking expirience im sure that now someone can create really a Rocket ROM and you to feel Speed,Smoothnes,response time and to Enjoy the Blackstone to love to scrolling and to love to use it.. not to wait 5 seconds the Music in the Music tab to be loaded and things like this...
I Hope someone really to create some kind of HYBRID ROM from all the Best in one simple ROM

Thanks for this! I like it! I might keep it
A perfect example of what we're talking about. I don't care about autorotations and stuff like that. If I did I would get an iPhone I guess . Speed and stability that's what it should be all about!
Ummm, yes...
I'm waiting to see what will happen here:
TOPIX_Kwbr_Win 6.5_Ver_21877 + TouchFLO3D 2.1.38411.0 (supposedly Kwbr will update this once he gets his HD working) and here: [ROM][WM6.5/6.5.x][21903/23116][WWE][UC] Clean ROM v. T1.0/B1.0*****03.05.2010*****
But I really like Manila 2.1.19212117.2 which is cooked in Wajk's ROMs.
It handles contacts and mail accounts much more to my liking than TF3D.
But I'll watch this thread too...

I am looking for a rom with sense 2.1 on wm6.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618063
but one with the weather on the front...
Place a Request
Friend! What you are looking for was developed by @Jackos
Its called Jackos WM6.1 21048 Hybrid Sense 2.1
You will need to request him to post it for you to download. It has few minor bugs (but one can do with it). Try it, I think you will like it - Its fast and pretty stable too.
tried it...in fact used it.... and of course loved it too.... But I personally prefer the SPB Mobile Shell interface a bit over Sense. Only eye candy in the Sense interface is the weather animation, which i have learned to live without.
Regards,
Anyone know if one exists?
I find that running 2.1 is much smoother and just tends to run better than 2.5. 2.5 just runs a little slow for my tastes considering it's meant for 1Ghz instead of our measly 500Mhz.
Would appreciate it. I know we have a 6.1 with 2.1 but I like the start menu on 6.5. Or if someone could link me to a ROM of a pure upgrade to 6.5 and then a cab for 2.1 that'd be good too. I would like a 6.5 build that's up to date if at all possible. Thanks for the help
Look at the thread of NRGZ28 (Energy ROM), at the last download picture you'll see the title: Titanium and Sense 2.1
There you can choose.
Hi,
I'm new to all this and i'm just testing roms so a quick question cause i'm trying to decide between sense 2.1 and 2.5. Is it possible to have the people tab exactly like it is in sense 2.1 in sense 2.5?
I really like that one better, i don't want to see 6 faces at a time i want three people there. Why make me have a half-blank screen?
On the other hand i'm thinking maybe i should stay with 2.1 cause of the speed but 2.5 has some nice animation + full landscape support...
So will you help me decide?
